Does MIT imply a denial?

[xzjohn]

Applied to Biological Engineering at MIT. I gathered information from some other online forums and found, in 2007, MIT sent out interview e-mails from Jan.20 to Feb.22, according to the self-reports. Denial letters, dated around Feb.15, were received by mail in around March 5. Those who were rejected after interview got letters around March 25.

Just searched the results and found two guys had got interview e-mails on Jan.17 and Feb.7. But I got nothing, by now. :shock:

MIT department staff just replied my e-mail, saying "the department will let you know about your application when we can".

I sorta feel I've been rejected but haven't got the official letter because they haven't started sending out denial letters.

I'm not quite good at reading between lines.

So, what do you think about his reply?

BTW, I'm on the wait list at Caltech, also bioengineering PHD program. Does anyone have an idea about the chance I get admitted?

FYI, I've got rejected by biomedical engineering PHD program at Northwestern. They sent out the offers and some denial letters around Jan.20, and rejected those on the wait list on Feb.6, including me. You can log on the application system and check out your decision. GOOD LUCK.
